good movie, but there are a lot of anti-Soviet propaganda (as in all these movies)
I can not say that that communism is good, I almost did not live with him (incidentally, we could never have been communism, socialism was) but then my parents lived.
but at least then was considered an honorable profession welder, now considered to be honorable lawyers and bankers, etc, and this is very bad
@greyderH2 Yes. I could have warned you of that...the same thing happened to America. This used to be a nation of famers, welders, and workers. There were bankers, but they were the enemy and the people knew it. Now we are a nation where the very lucky are lawyers and bankers, or TV producers or actors. The rest of us at gas station attendants or working at McDonalds fast-food resteraunts...that is, if you're lucky and have a job at all. (There are still farmers/workers, but not many)
Over 80 Million people died in Russia in the last century much of that due to war and government purges. I find it amazing that the engineers could think of anything given the pressure, this aside from the fact that as soon as you start to climb the ladder you fall more and more into the deadly spotlight of political persecution. They must be respected.
I rather felt uneasy seeing how few references the documentary made about the Nazi invasion of Russia in WWII and the Eastern Front. You know, because that would tell the audience that there might be a legitimate reason for the Soviets to develop these planes
The "Soviet Union" was a joke. The Russian SSR indiscriminately exploited the other republics, and their people were considered "inferior" by the russians. The ukranians, georgians and estonians were for the russians the same as the slavs were for the germans.
In the Beginning, Stalin was more dumb than Hitler ,so Hitler own Stalin backside. When Hitler wasted a large portion of his aircraft in the battle of Britain and the men and war machines in the eastern front, sudden the "two chess piece switches places" . Hitler became a moron and now its Stalin turn to own Hitler backside towards the end of the world war.
"Second only to the US", god they can't cope with anyone being better than them. In many aspects, the Russians are ahead of the USA. Especially in the late cold war and even now if not WW2 era.
there's an old anecdote about Stalin;he was told that the Benelux countries comprised Holland ,Luxembourg and Belgium.He just flat out told them that they we're wrong and he was right because he was Stalin and they weren't.He wasn't a touch schizo..more like super-paranoid about everyone and everything.
I agree with Ispintechno1 and Brera011. The Soviet Union was, at first, a great nation, and could have been wildly successful and prosperous had someone less crazy succeeded Lenin (whom I'm actually something of a fan of).
Good documentary, but the anti Stalin propaganda is a pathetic Cold War hold over. The truth is that capitalists, who are the world's greatest mass murderers ever, lie about Stalin. This is because Stalin lead the first anti-capitalist state, the great Soviet Union, where the masses came first, not bourgeois pigs. Look at the USA today, the great warmongering capitalist power, Look at the way it's ruling class is destroying the lives of it's masses. This is capitalism.
hitler didnt want to whipe out communist russia, he the nazies and there allies wanted to whipe out russians and others. Very racist motives, not political! Thats was just nazie propaganda.
funny he the common thought, that those innovative designs only originated / copied from nazie germany or the allies. Now thats old goldwar propeganda for you ;-) Ah well, that was than this is now. Enjoy so to speak
@crabulent Indeed, i saw this about 3-4 years ago on the "History Channel" (British one), and that copy didn't have this awful narration or mispronunciation (the word order and infomation is the same though).
The book by Robert J. Morrison called "Russia's Shortcut to Fame" outlines a compelling case how the ANT-25 flight was a HOAX. Basically they had a second ANT-25 plane in Alaska (Rudolph Island) and that one landed in Washington. They hid a true fuel capacity of 450 gallons by shipping it home. There was NO fuel tanks in the fuselage or wing stubs. The longest flight by the ANT-25 is 950 miles. More factors are secret radio stations giving false position reports, differences in the paint, etc.
Stalin was a real nut job according to this video. Executing his top designers too! Sounds like he was mad with power and a touch schizophrenic to boot (not that that can't be medicated these days).
@Ispintechno1 Indeed, Sergei Korolev (the Russian Born Rocket Pioneer and Von Braun counterpart) never truly recovered (in health terms) from his time in the Gulag, and it was the main reason why he died so young.
How different History would be if the Stalin Purges hadn't happend... is one of the great unknowns.
@Ispintechno1 Stalin Executing everyone that had anything to do with the Soviets if he thought they were going to cross him. Shit he killed more of his own people than Hitler Killed
For those who (still) think that Russia was a third world nation, first look at this amazing video first. The purges of Stalin and his outrageous ideas that people perform better under fear, really slowed down Russian progress in developing new technoligy. Without Stalin, the Russians could have been on the same level (or maybe better) than Americans, Germans, Japanese or British designers.
@Brera011 t-34,ppsh,is-3,kv-1, stalin modernisated the soviet industry and increased the life standart of the common soviet siticien,if it wasnt because of stalin the cccp would have fallen to the nazi germany stalin killed 500,000 but many of those people were landlords,thieves,murders,none of the was inocent he took the poor soviet union and transformed her into a world superpower
@Brera011 and there was false info that was introduced in the cccp by the nazis
that info was used to *purge* the army and many other stuff wich lead into the imprisonment of many smart leaders especially generals thenks to destiny comrade zukov wasnt acused and he leaded the red army against teh facist hordes of evil
@Brera011 Ahh, but you forget good sir that Stalin was responsible for Russia's rapid industrialization. Without his radical ideas and actions, Russia would have taken decades longer to reach this level of engineering. Whether or not the ends justify the means I leave to you to decide. (this is jr. high history)
@DarkTwinDX I totally agree with you. Stalin said: ..when our industry produce 10000 Tanks a mounth I don't need any generals. Well obviously he was wrong.
@DarkTwinDX Nonsense! Industrialization of Russia started back in 1890s and by the time of Stolypin's reforms was going faster than anytime under communist rule. By 1913 Russia surpassed US in Railroad construction and oil production. Igor Sikorsky produced 1st in the world 4 engine Heavy Bomber and 1st in the world 4 engine airliner in 1914. Both flying

Anyone can survive a plane crash from 40 000 ft. today. The technology is so far advanced.
Flying saucers were too simple in concept, and perhaps required larger fuel tanks as well.
